Mariehjemmene Kolding is the first private care home in Kolding municipality and forms part of the city’s response to a growing elderly population and rising demand for modern care beds. The project delivers 80 purpose-built care units and an integrated kindergarten, creating an intergenerational setting where daily interaction between children and elderly residents can occur. Sustainability has been prioritised, with the building pre-screened for DGNB Gold and certification expected in 2026.
